KML/Ruler Feature

[+BigOpe]

In GoogleEarth I frequently use the Ruler feature to mark points along a route and get an approximation of the distance. If I launch the geocaching.com GoogleMap I haven't yet found an equivalent. Is it there and I'm just missing it? (Yes, I know I could grab a series of coordinates and eventually get the same result, but the GoogleEarth feature is WAY convenient....)

Duh, never mind, just looked again and there it was.

Double duh, there it was in the .kml, but NOT when you launch the google map from the geocaching.com website. So question still stands....

Are you talking about this map? http://www.geocaching.com/map/default.aspx

There's no such thing there. You can only go to regular google maps (http://maps.google.com/), log in with your google account and activate the beta features, one of which is the ruler. But of course there's no caches shown there.

Yes, the map you can launch from the web page of an individual cache. OK, was just hoping it was hiding there somewhere and I was overlooking it. I can always use the .kml, just a minor inconvenience.
